Africa-Press – Tanzania. THE newly elected Golf Captain of Dar es Salaam Gymkhana Club (DGC), Mohamed Dewji, has announced the cooption of additional committee members to strengthen the Golf Section.
In a statement he released, Dewji said the co-option process aligns with Article 15 (a) of the club’s constitution.
He stressed that the move aims to enhance and streamline the operations of the Golf Section, ensuring an improved experience for all members.
He named the newly co-opted committee members, including Lady Captain Sue Van Zyl, Treasurer Jiten Lavingia, Competition Secretary Abid Omari, Handicap Secretary Ali Mamdouhi and Course Superintendent Rustom Samji.
“With this team in place, the Golf Section Committee looks forward to working closely with all members to foster a vibrant and well-organised golfing environment,” Dewji stated.
He added that the expertise and dedication of the new committee members would contribute to the smooth running of competitions, course maintenance and overall member satisfaction.
The committee also encourages all golfers at DGC to actively participate and engage with the section to keep the club a hub for passionate and committed golf enthusiasts.
The Ladies’ Section at the club has been relatively quiet for some time.
However, the return of former Lady Captain Van Zyl has reinvigorated the section, earning her congratulations from fellow golfers.
Among those praising Van Zyl is Tanzania Ladies Golf Union (TLGU) President Queen Siraki, who said: “Congratulations, Sue! We are happy to have you back and to revive our togetherness.”
Following her appointment, Van Zyl wasted no time in seeking to restoring the section’s former glory.
She has already organised a weekly ladies’ tournament, the Ladies’ Fiddle, which will tee off next Thursday.
Furthermore, she has pledged to seek sponsorships for the Monthly Mug tournament and has called on female golfers to support these initiatives.
“Thank you so much for your compliments. I can only do this if we all work together as a team. I would like to have ladies’ competitions every Thursday, starting next week, giving me time to arrange trophies for future events,” Van Zyl said.
